We're home for the beach & settling back down. We were at Pine Knoll Shores in NC & it was delightful. The aquarium is right there, the beach is quiet & the Hampton Inn was actually terrific!
At Pine Knoll Shores we recommend:
Amos Mosquito's Restaurant, a little more expensive than we normally do as a family, but it was a great atmosphere & delicious food.
The Shark Shack, a little less formal, but delicious grouper!
NC Aquarium, can't go wrong. The girls loved it--again.
A Coffee Affair--great cup a joe.
Shells as shovels, free & fun.
Fort Macon, what a great historical learning experience!
Here are some pics from the trip:
sand exploration.
freedom.

Leviah takes Fort Macon.
Dinner: Tabouli & Pita Bread from Moosewood. We already made the bulghur based Tabouli twice, if that says anything. It is great & perfect for hot summer days. & the pita was a success as well. Sorry, no pics of these--they were devoured too quickly!
Sorry for the delay in announcing the winner! Blame the beach... ;)
The winner:
Looks like the peacock bag is popular and can see why so lovely.
Congratulations!
